Telling a man that you're falling in love with him is not the easiest translation from thought to action. There are the worries, the fears, the concerns that he'll reject your feelings and even communicate displeasure at the change of seriousness in your relationship. Yet, if you feel that the time is right and that this really is something that it's time to say, go for it.

Steps

1

Be sure. If you're just lusting and you barely know him, there is no point telling him you're "falling in love with him". In the early stages, it's love you're in love with.

2

Say it away from other people. It isn't a good idea to be professing love in a crowd. Make alone space, and make alone time. Make it safe for both of you to express your feelings completely.

3

Wait until he's half asleep. Try that twilight time as he dozes off. If he hears you, he won't be sure if he's dreaming or not and you can gauge his facial expression and make a decision whether or not to try again in the morning. Or you can tell him he told you (a little mind messing)! Of course, this method is in no way foolproof and judging that right moment can be very hard!

4

Say it clearly and slowly. When you do pluck up the courage, say it so that it makes sense and can be heard. Say it as if you've said it to him a million times before; that'll help take the edge off your nerves.

5

Wait. If you're not sure, perhaps wait until he has the courage to say what both of you are feeling. If it's meant to be, it'll come out of his mouth sooner or later.
